Abstract: | The factors which cause additional losses of guidance optical fiber in wound state were analyzed.A mathematical model used to analyze the macro-bend losses in the cross region producing in the precision winding process was established.For an actual guidance optical fiber,the measured data of the fiber's additional losses under low temperature and the loss curves with radius were given in the paper.The simulation results were compared with the test data.It shows that the additional losses of optical fiber caused by bending and low temperature can meet the actual requirements of the fiber optical guidance system.The established model can be used to predict the change trend of fiber losses in the winding process with a certain tensile force. |
